For viewers ages 21+ (Or 18+ if you’re Canadian)
Ok ladies, it’s about that time! 8:00pm this Thursday, Dr. Meredith Grey and the whole crew over at everyone’s dream workplace of Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital will come back into our lives. Simultaneously, creator Shonda Rhimes will work on ruining our lives by killing off everybody, just to add to the fun.
That said it’s time to kick Season 12 off right. Go ahead and pop open a bottle of red, put on one the famous depressing pop songs from 2006 that’s always played when someone dies, and tip it back with your person.
1. Take a sip and give a big, fat high school eye roll every time a new intern does something so stupid that it makes you think “I definitely could be a surgical intern. What an IDIOT!”
2. Drink every time a doctor says any of the following…
· “PUSH 10 OF EPI”
· “CHARGE TO 200…CLEAR!”
· “THEY’RE CODING!”
· “Ten blade.”
· “WE’VE GOT A BLEEDER.”
3. Drink every time Dr. Karev, Dr. Avery or Dr. Hunt is shirtless and it makes you drool. (Please drink responsibly.)
4. Cheers and pour yourself a celebratory top-off if Amelia and Owen actually stay coupled for the whole episode. (Because they’re perfect together.)
5. Waterfall with your roommates every time Arizona is mean to poor Callie and yet still describes everything as “So awesome!”. Hey Robbins, definitely figure it out. Thanks.
6. Down your friend’s drink with no apology if/when she refers to Callie and Arizona as “Calzona”.
7. Take a nice heaping gulp every time April Kepner is awkward and decides huffing and running away is the best response to evade responsibility and arguments. (Note to self – consider trying this technique.)
8. Take an even bigger gulp every time intern Jo complains about absolutely anything. (Again, please drink responsibly.)
9. Turn the TV off and hit a margarita bar if Meredith finds out she has another half sister.
And finally…
10. Finish your drink the first time somebody brings up Derrick’s death and it makes you want to finish the entire bottle and/or crawl into a deep, dark cave. McDreamy is McDeceased and now we all don’t know what do with our shattered hearts. GREAT. JUST GREAT.
Is it time for Scandal yet?
